Buyer Guide: What smart-tv to buy for the usage of sunshine and moonlight

[Matthias102]

Hello there,

right now I am looking for a new smart-tv with the ideal hardware to use moonlight on.
Requirements:

• Hardware decoding with low latency codec
• display with 120 MHz refreshrate
• display with low latency in gamemode
• Able to adjust to a variable framerate gamestream from sunshine
• Able to take more than 60 MBit/s of Video Bitrate from sunshine
• 55-65 inch

Right now I am using a RTX4080 as encoder and a FireTV Stick 4K MAX (2021) as decoder.

(I am also using a Samsung S24 Ultra as client and it's really great at taking a gamestream with variable framerate and using the AV1 low latency codec.)

Maybe there is some line-up of smart-tvs that has been proven its worth that you know of.
Oh, and is it always better use an external HDMI-device like the FireTV stick for the encoding...or are some TVs great at doing that on their own?

I am truly grateful for any advice you can give me on this matter.
